166: Shameless Master

“Royal Sister, Royal Sister!!”

Nangong Wendi, who was scammed by a UFO, arrived late at the spectator stands and sat down next to Nangong Jing.

“Oh, it’s Third Brother.”

Nangong Jing didn't have much affection for the Third Prince. She waved her hand casually as a greeting, her gaze still fixed on the two figures in the arena below.

Her focus was always on one person.

That was Yu Jingshen.

Nangong Wendi seemed to be used to Nangong Jing’s indifference. He spoke to himself, “How can this Yu Jingshen be stronger than Tang Zhiqiu? Tang Zhiqiu has clearly broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm, yet he still dares to fight…”

Nangong Wendi’s words, like a thunderclap, exploded in Nangong Jing’s ears, deafening her.

Nascent Soul?

What Nascent Soul?

Who reached Nascent Soul?

“What did you say?” Nangong Jing’s eyes widened. If she hadn't been a certain distance from Nangong Wendi, she probably would have grabbed her brother’s collar: “Who is Nascent Soul?!”

“Who else but Tang Zhiqiu!” Nangong Wendi pouted, “Speaking of which, this Yu Jingshen is really overconfident…”

Nangong Jing’s delicate body trembled violently. Looking at the two figures in the arena who were about to start fighting, she couldn’t help but shout loudly:

“Yu Jingshen! Stop the fight, stop the fight!”

“Where’s the referee? We surrender, surrender!”

That’s right! It was all her overconfidence that led Yu Jingshen to accept this challenge. If anything happened to Yu Jingshen, she would be solely responsible!

A Golden Core fighting a Nascent Soul?

He wouldn't win even if he fought with his head!

In the arena, Meng Yun scratched his left ear with his left hand, while the spiritual energy in his right hand had transformed into an Eagle Ghost Claw (learned secretly from Lin Xiao), grabbing towards Tang Zhiqiu.

He immediately unleashed a Seventh-Grade Heavenly Spirit Skill from Blue Star. Although such a Spirit Skill might not be much in the cultivation world, it was enough to deal with a Nascent Soul!

I forgot to mention, the array Meng Yun set up was actually a composite array. Besides the superficial Fourth-Grade Spirit Gathering Array, there were also a Sound Isolation Array, a Damage Reduction Array, and… that strange array.

So Nangong Jing’s words actually couldn't reach Meng Yun’s ears.

Meng Yun had his own plans.

Later, when he beat Tang Zhiqiu until he knelt and called him 'Daddy,' at least the audience outside wouldn't hear it, right?

“This Eagle Claw…” Tang Zhiqiu’s eyes narrowed, and he became extremely cautious.

This kind of Spirit Skill was unseen before, and its power was extraordinary. He had to be wary!

“Good! Watch my Heaven and Earth Eight Gates Break!”

Tang Zhiqiu, like someone practicing Tai Chi, casually pushed out a disk seal.

It carried a mysterious force, suppressing Meng Yun’s claw.

The Eagle Ghost Claw fiercely struck the array disk, emitting a grating, ear-piercing sound. Countless spiritual energy fluctuations spread intensely, making their bodies appear ethereal and unstable.

“This Yu Jingshen…”

Tang Zhiqiu was inwardly surprised. Although he intentionally suppressed his strength to the Golden Core Realm, he was the strongest below Golden Core!

A Golden Core after breaking through to Nascent Soul would only be stronger!

“Break for me!!”

Tang Zhiqiu roared, and the array disk suddenly split into eight petals. Each petal carried supreme power, clamping down on the Eagle Ghost Claw.

“Come on, I’ve set up the Primordial Star Devouring Array.

The stronger the attack, the more it’s weakened. The more it’s weakened, the more the attack is weakened.”

So the stronger the attack, the weaker the attack!

The eight array disk petals blasted towards Meng Yun.

Meng Yun neither dodged nor avoided, even deliberately revealing a flaw, to prevent Tang Zhiqiu from discovering the trick too early!

The Eagle Claw was struck by the array disk, momentarily losing its form, and instantly dissipated into streams of light.

Meng Yun also feigned defeat, retreating several steps until one foot almost brushed the edge of the grand array before he finally stopped.

“Hiss~”

A collective gasp echoed throughout the entire venue.

With just one move!

One move almost pushed Yu Jingshen out of the competition area!

As expected of Tang Zhiqiu!

As expected of the strongest below Golden Core!

“Tang Zhiqiu! Beat him!”

“Let this Yu Jingshen know the power of our Heavenly Sword Pavilion!”

“Damn it, Yu Jingshen, I bet a hundred stakes on you winning! Hold on!”

“There should be no suspense…”

Countless noisy voices rose from the spectator stands, creating a bustling clamor.

Hearing these voices and seeing Meng Yun’s current predicament, Nangong Jing felt even more like she was sitting on pins and needles!

It was all her fault!

Yu Jingshen’s defeat was a small matter; if he were to be disheartened from then on, her sin would be immense!

No, she couldn't let them continue fighting!

She had to go down and stop him immediately!

The princess wasn't afraid of losing face!

Whoever dared to mock the princess this morning would be dragged to the execution ground and beheaded at noon!

With such thoughts, Nangong Jing stood up directly.

However, before she could fly into the arena, another viewing platform spontaneously rose beside her.

Seated atop it were none other than Senior Brother Qin YuanTong, the chief disciple of Heaven Sword Pavilion, and several other unfamiliar faces with extremely powerful aura!

“Mirror Sister, a match is going on below. What are you doing?” Senior Brother Qin YuanTong, in a black robe and with a bald head, asked Nangong Jing.

Nangong Jing expressed deep concern: “Senior Brother Qin, Tang Zhiqiu is already Nascent Soul, and Yu Jingshen is only at Transformation Spirit Peak. I’m afraid…”

“So that’s how it is.”

Senior Brother Qin YuanTong glanced down at the arena. With his Transformation Spirit Peak strength, he naturally saw through Meng Yun’s true cultivation at a glance: “I think Junior Brother Yu might not necessarily lose. Mirror Sister, why don’t you wait and see before making a decision?”

Nangong Jing was half-convinced. Before she could speak, someone else interrupted:

“Hey, Senior Brother Qin YuanTong, this little girl is quite pretty. Introduce her to me?”

Among those accompanying Senior Brother Qin YuanTong, a golden-robed man looked at Nangong Jing and grinned.

His golden hair appeared very flamboyant.

“Zhou Huang, this is Her Royal Highness Princess Nangong Jing of our Tianjian Dynasty. You must not be impolite.” Senior Brother Qin YuanTong reminded him calmly and neither humbly nor arrogantly.

“Oh, so it’s Her Royal Highness Princess. Nice to meet you, nice to meet you.” Zhou Huang instantly knew that this woman was out of his league and immediately lost interest.

He then turned his gaze downwards, finally settling on Meng Yun for a moment:

“Tsk tsk, is this the genius of your Tianjian Dynasty at the Nascent Soul Realm?

He seems to have ordinary strength…”

If Meng Yun had noticed above him at that moment, he would have realized that the Zhou Huang, who was casually evaluating him from a superior position, was none other than the Great Saint Son of Three Saints Palace in his youth—

Saint Huang!

Hearing this, the short-tempered Nangong Jing immediately became displeased: “Senior Brother Qin, this guy’s words are very annoying. Can we kill him?”

Senior Brother Qin YuanTong was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: “Hahaha, Mirror Sister, this Zhou Huang is a seeded contestant representing the Xia Ya Dynasty at the Nascent Soul Realm. Although his personality is a bit eccentric, it’s not a capital offense, is it…”

His words both highlighted Zhou Huang’s impressive background and, through humor, gently diffused the unfriendly remark.

Being this chief senior brother wasn’t easy!

“Hmph.” Nangong Jing knew that it was impossible, so she simply ignored the other party.

Since the incredibly reliable Senior Brother said Yu Jingshen still had a chance, then she might as well wait and see!

...

In the arena, Meng Yun stabilized his body, having almost been knocked out of bounds.

But Tang Zhiqiu clearly wouldn’t give him time to breathe. The eight array disk petals, like a sudden downpour, shot towards Meng Yun again!

“I originally wanted to give you some face, but since you’re pressing so hard, don’t blame me for being merciless!”

I will make you kneel and call me 'Daddy'!

“Heaven and Earth… Eight Gates… Break!!”

In Meng Yun’s hand, an array disk of the exact same Spirit Skill as Tang Zhiqiu’s was instantly mimicked by him, then burst forth from his body!

“You??

How do you know this?!”

Tang Zhiqiu was greatly alarmed, vowing to completely suppress Meng Yun!

One original, one copy, thus clashed head-on in a hard-hitting confrontation!
